Bolli (1957):
The Trinidad specimens resembling the figures of Globigerina trilocularis given by Fornasini are for the present placed in this species. They are restricted in Trinidad to the lower (Oligocene) part of the Cipero formation, whereas d'Orbigny's type might be from a different level. From observations made on material from the Globorotalia kugleri zone, it appears probable that the Globigerina cf. trilocularis can be regarded as the ancestor of Globigerinoides triloba (Reuss). Specimens of Globigerina trilocularis and Globigerinoides triloba immatura Le Roy were found to be indistinguishable in this zone, except that the latter showed a supplementary sutural aperture in the last chamber. |
